The Persian is capable of great mental

He has no gift OF invention, out OF imita
ton He never gives way to anger except
when he can afford the luxury. Saadi
tells "A little fable which is as character
istic Of the Persian Of to-day as 1t was In
his own time A dervish being once
grossly insulted by a mighty parsonage
nursed his wrath for fifteen years. Then,
his way leading him along "a certain high
road, he sees his enemy, fallen into dis
grace and stripped of all power, nailed to
the cross and nearly expiring. The
dervish deliberately went in search OF Il
big, jagged stone, and having found one
threw 1t ut the dying man. This, Saadi
says, is what II wise man should do under
similar circumstances-Wo Won Scher-

AN incident occurred the other after
noon while I was in the box that seems
almost too ludicrous to be true. A couple
of very gawky looking countrymen came
into the lobby and began to examine very
infinitely the stand OF photographs, espc-
cially the picture representing Robson and
Crane as the two Dromios. They seemed
quite interested, and although / could
not hear the conversation / could see
plainly that they were engaged In warm
argument. One of them woul direct the
others attention to particular points about
the photographs and insist upon his view,
while the other would as strongly deny
the possibility of its being correct. Final
ly they seemed to grow tired of the alter
cation and turned to me as II for u deci-
sion. One of them approached the window
and after some preliminary coughs and
stammerings said, jerking his thumb over
his shoulder toward the pictures: 'Beant
